Josh open and closed his mouth, as if he were a cod-fish,
"I don't know, honestly. Maybe look it up, type her name into google or something? I don't know, man. I moved away to avoid this shit."

Evan lit up, pulling his phone from his pocket. “That’s right! Google!! What was her name? I’ll look it up!”

"Her names Eleanor Dolion"
Nico got on his tippy toes and placed his chin on Evans shoulder, looking at his phone screen.

Evan ignored the slight blush that came to his face and typed in the name, leaning his head a little bit on Nico’s.
He tilted his screen a little more so Nico could see more.

"Ah, that one! Click that one!"
Nico snatched the phone from Evans hands, and before Josh had a chance to stop him, all the colour drained from his face.
"Holy shit."

Evan blinked in surprise when he found his phone to no longer be in his hands. He laughed softly, choosing to instead take his place by Nico’s side, looking over his shoulder and reading what he could.
“Oh.”

"THATS HER- THATS-"
"Give!"
Josh took the phone from his hands,
"Whats going on? You just storm into my room, start interrogating me about something id have no clue about, then start throwing my phone around! Why are you so set on Eleanor, you where so sure she was dead yesterday!"

Evan placed a hand on Nico’s shoulder, looking at Josh in confusion.
“Don’t you want to know what happened? Nico went years believing she died.”

"I know that-" Josh sputtered,
"Just- what made you change your mind so eagerly??"
"I got a phone call."
Nicos eyes remained trained on Joshes face, watching it contort into multiple different emotions.

An idea suddenly popped into his head. Evan lit up.
"Hey, Nico? Can you see who's called you last? Can you do that too Josh? You two could compare the numbers and see if its the same person. Josh said he had someone calling him too, right? Can you guys compare the two numbers and if its the same one then we might have a lead/"

They both whipped out their phones simultaneously. It only took a few seconds before they were in each others personal bubble, scanning the numbers on there screen,
"0418 485 343" Josh stated
"0418 485 343" Nico repeated flawlessly, holding up his screen.
He turned to Evan,
"It's a +61 number, do you know where that's from?"

Evan beamed proudly at himself, happy to have made the connection.
"A +61? Australia isn't it? Didn't you say it was from somewhere there?" He asked, biting his lip. "But I'm not sure. I'm no good at country codes."

"I don't know, maybe," he turned to his brother, expectantly.
"I don't know! I haven't been here!"
"Do we have family overseas?"
"Probably-"
"To Facebook!!"
Nico sprinted out the door,
"You two coming??"
He freed Milo from his spot in the side gate and ran to the car, the massive door stumbling after him.

Evan grinned brightly, following after Nico with a laugh and a cry of surprise when he saw the dog.
He really did like dogs.
“Of course I’m coming.”

Josh followed aswell, assuming he was going too, considering that his dog had tagged along.
They piled into the car, Nico and Milo squashed into the back seat!
"Alright! To the apartment!!"

(XD Evan is equal parts cute and equal parts feral. But Nico? That kid is cute as heeeelllll)

Before driving off, Evan gave Milo a few pats, beaming at the big dog. He'd always wanted one but never got around to adopting or finding one for himself. He was a little preoccupied with life.
He laughed quietly at the words, nodding as he drove off.

It didn't take them long to reach the apartment, Evan hurrying to open the door and let his guests and roommate in.
"Alright, lets do this!"

(He do be kinda babie doe)
They sprinted up the stairwell. Josh yelled a little "he's a service dog!" anytime someone tried to stop Milo from galloping after them (not that anyone could actually stop him)
Nico ran at the door and tried to push it open, only before slamming his body aggressively again the door,
"Ow," he frowned, "it's locked."

(He really do be doe!)

Evan stifled his laughter when he came up to Nico, shaking his head and gently patting Nico’s head.
“You’re too cute.” He hummed, a light blush on his face as he unlocked the door and opened it for the group.
“Alright, after you,”

"Sheesh, get a room," Josh jeered, slipping his way through the door.
Nico made a burst for his room, turning his computer on,
"Alright, facebook login!"

Evan flushed at the jeer, rubbing at the back of his neck sheepishly.
He followed after Nico a little slower, awkwardly standing by the door and biting his lip as he watched the other.
“So, what do you plan to do? Are we going to go find her?”

"Well- I wouldn't imagine she has a facebook, but-"
he pressed enter on his credentials and opened his profile,
"I'm sure we'll find some sort of relative on here!"

Evan laughed softly, moving to hover over Nico’s shoulder, humming. “This is kinda fun. Like a mystery.”

Nico opened his mouth to protest, but Josh cut him off,
"Come on! Put our name in the search bar!"
He did as he was told, and thousands of results popped up,
"How are we supposed to know whose who??"

Evan frowned at the long list, eyeing each profile pic as well as he could.
“Mm is there something we can use to find out? A free ancestral chart or something?”

"No.. That'd take to long.." he sighed,
"Hey-" Nico's hand shot up to the screen,
"She kinda looks like aunt Rosa!"
Josh narroed his eyes and lent forward; he shook his head,
"No, I'm not familiar."
"She came to stay with dad, to help look after me!"
He opened the profile named 'Aster Dolion'

Evan puffed up his cheeks as he thought for a moment. His eyes widened when the woman was pointed out, grinning.

"Shoot her a message!"
Nico slammed the keys of his keyboard, clumsily constructing his message to the girl.
He pressed send.
"Now we wait," Josh sighed, straightening himself up

Evan hummed once that was done, standing and moving to the kitchen to grab some water.
"How are you two feeling? This is a lot of news." He asked, smiling back at the two. Though he felt awkward with the two brothers he wasn't going to let that stop him.

Nico shrugged,
"Hasn't set in yet."
"Yeah," Josh followed up,
"Its kinda crazy, i guess i feel a bit… indifferent?"
